Crescent Pepperoni Roll-Ups

Crescent Pepperoni Roll-Ups - only 3 ingredients! Great for an after school snack or fun twist to pizza night! Serve with a side of hot pizza sauce.

After all the holiday cooking last week, I needed some simple recipes for dinner this week. I saw these pepperoni rolls on Pinterest and decided to make them for pizza night.

This is one of those "why didn't I think of that" recipes! I can't believe I've never thought to do this before. I like to use turkey pepperoni on pizza. My favorite brand is Bridgford Turkey Pepperoni - it tastes just like regular pepperoni, but it isn't greasy! You can also microwave the pepperoni for a few seconds to crisp it up. These pepperoni rolls were so simple and super tasty! We will be eating these again very soon!

Yield: 8 crescents

These look awesome and pretty simple too! I have seen them on pinterest, pretty sure I have pinned them, but I haven't had a chance to try them. Might have to make them for football game snacks this weekend! :)

Made these for dinner last night! They were a huge hit -- even with the kids (who usually take a while to warm up to a new dish)!

I did use regular pepperoni instead of turkey (because I already had it on hand). I was afraid the extra grease would make them turn out soggy, but they were perfect! I'll try the turkey pepperoni next time, just to try something new.

like many of your other readers, i found this on pinterest. i've got the ingredients in the kitchen and am going to make these for dinner. looking forward to browsing (and probably pinning) some of your other recipes and ideas!

just made these for Senior Bowl snacks and they are amazing! I puta little dollop of sauce right on the roll before I put the pep, then served with ranch! I also used some Canadian bacon, great! GOTTA LOVE PINTEREST!

I thought these were very tasty! I love that the crescent roll gives the "crust" a different flavor. I could have eaten a hundred of them! Unfortunately, my eight year old did not like the crescent roll and refused to eat anything but the pepperoni and cheese dipped in sauce...but what does he know???? LOL Plus, it really wasn't enough for a dinner for an eight year old, a five year old, and me. But I think I will use it as an appy recipe, cause I think they'd go over HUGE! Consider me on board with these!!!

My toddler (Hila Fay) & I made these the other day for lunch. She had so much fun "heppin" me! Thanx for the idea! I forgot to pin up the sides, sure wish I had remembered that step! I posted a blog about it, and linked your blog, hope you don't mind!

My dd made these when she went babysitting. They loved them so much that the mom asked for the recipe and I printed the recipe from your site giving you credit. We've had them for dinner several times and we're having them again tonight. We especially like them with the swirl cheese sticks.

I've made these a couple of times and they are amazing! I nuke the string cheese for a few seconds; the first time I made these the string cheese didn't melt at all (not surprising with the low cook time and the fact that the cheese was straight out of the fridge)

I like to sprinkle a little Italian seasoning on them with the garlic powder.

I had these for supper tonight while I was babysitting my two nephews (10 and 8) and my niece (12) and they loved it. They made them. They are extremely filling. I served them with warmed up spaghetti sauce I had on hand.

I did omit the garlic powder! Not a fan personally.

Thank you so much! It was a blessing because I had coupons so I was able to do it on the cheap!

These were good. For those of you that mentioned the rolls burning on the bottom,use parchment paper. I also spread a little,sauce on mine before baking. I did not have string cheese so I cut pieces of cheese from a block. It worked fine.
